Pokemon Go is still going strong, thanks in part to its constant evolution. With the meta ever changing, right now, what is the strongest Pokemon in Pokemon Go? Here are the details on which is the best Pokemon and how players can catch it on iOS and Android.

Pokemon Go | What is the strongest Pokemon in 2021?

Just like Ash Ketchum in the Pokemon anime, Pokemon Go players all aim to be the best. Capturing them all is the ultimate goal, although, in the meantime, many players will be content with catching the strongest and most powerful Pokemon in the mobile game. Which Pokemon is the best, though?

Mewtwo is the most powerful Pokemon in Pokemon Go. The legendary psychic type is incredibly strong, which shouldn't surprise longtime fans of the franchise. Mewtwo is the result of human experiments to create the perfect Pokemon, which explains why the legendary original from the Kanto region has endured and excelled to this day.

Mewtwo Pokemon Go stats

• Maximum CP (Combat Power) - 4.724
• Attack - 300
• Defense - 182
• Resistance - 214

Although Deoxys has a higher Attack stat (345) and Slaking has a higher Max CP (4.431) - which can make them look better on paper - neither Pokemon are as good as Mewtwo in practice. Mewtwo is applicable to more situations, thanks to being a good all-rounder with a better variety of moves and stats.

How to catch Mewtwo in Pokemon Go

Mewtwo is only available through specific raids and community events in Pokemon Go. The next opportunity to catch Mewtwo is during the Pokemon Go Tour: Kanto in-game event, which will take place on Saturday, February 20, 2021. During the event, all 150 Pokemon from the Kanto region will be available to catch for those who purchase a ticket; which includes a Mewtwo with the Psychobomb move. For those who don't purchase a ticket, Mewtwo will still be available via a legendary raid.
